You have to wonder how this will play into his retirement decision. I'd hate to think that could have been his last pass ever...

It was a real strange thing. The part that was left with John in it went out of camera. You could see it briefly before the front of the chassi and most of the body went over and hit Bernsteins car. Could it be a clutchexplosion?

Hope he'll recover soon.

Listen to this maniac talk about the crash from his HOSPITAL bed. He wants to drive next week to preserve his points, oh and the $500k don't hurt either

Great video..... glad to see he is ok that was a scary ride... He is a true racer already trying to figure out how he is going to drive at the next race. His publicist announced earlier today he would not return for the rest of the season. I bet Force doesnt wait that long.

That's an excellent interview. Go John. Leaves little doubt that he will be back.
